"The question now is very simple, do we allow the rule of might makes right to prevail in the case of Western Sahara or do we uphold the principles of international legality and resolutions of #UnitedNations in this matter." His Excellency Dr. Sidi Mohamed Omar
"The way forward is very simple; #Morocco is an occupying power, and the United Nation and the international committee should make it very clear to Morocco that there is no place for colonial powers in the 21st century and then to make and put in place the necessary measures to allow the people of #WesternSahara to exercise freely and democratically their inalienable right to #selfDetermination and independence in line with relevant United Nations resolutions"
We thank his Excellency Dr. Sidi Mohamed Omar for his statement in today meeting of the Special Committee on the Situation concerning the Implementation of the #Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples (also known as the Special Committee on decolonization or #C24)On the question of #WesternSahara.
